Imagine creating a limited-edition artist’s book of The Real Life of Sebastian Knight. Your proposed book should incorporate the text of Nabokov’s novel and convey its meaning through the book’s own visual, spatial, or conceptual form. What would such a book look like? How would one read it? This is only a proposal, so you’re not limited by your resources or technical skills. Just describe your book in a brief paragraph.
